SIPARA 16
 
SURA MARYAM

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

  1. "So eat and drink and cool (thine) eye. And if thou dost see any man, say, `I have vowed a fast to (Allah) Most Gracious and this day will I enter into no talk with any human being.' "
  2. At length she brought the (babe) to her people, carrying him (in her arms). They said: "O Mary! truly an amazing thing hast thou brought!
  3. "O sister of Aaron! thy father was not a man of evil, nor thy mother a woman unchaste!"
  4. But she pointed to the babe. They said: "How can we talk to one who is a child in the cradle?"
  5. He said: "I am indeed a servant of Allah: He hath given me revelation and made me a prophet;
  6. "And He hath made me Blessed wheresoever I be, and hath enjoined on me Prayer and Charity as long as I live;
  7. "(He) hath made me kind to my mother, and not overbearing or miserable;
  8. "So Peace is on me the day I was born, the day that I die, and the Day that I shall be raised up to life (again)"!
  9. Such (was) Jesus the son of Mary: (It is) a statement of truth, about which they (vainly) dispute.
  10. It is not befitting to (the majesty of) Allah that He should beget a son. Glory be to Him! When He determines a matter, He only says to it, "Be," and it is.
  11. Verily, Allah is my Lord and your Lord: Him therefore serve ye: This is a Way that is straight.
  12. But the sects differ among themselves: And woe to the Unbelievers because of the (coming) Judgment of a momentous Day!
  13. How plainly will they see and hear, the Day that they will appear before Us! But the unjust today are in error manifest!
  14. But warn them of the Day of Distress, when the matter will be determined: For (behold), they are negligent and they do not believe!
  15. It is We Who will inherit the earth, and all beings thereon: To Us will they all be returned.
  16. Also mention in the Book (the story of) Abraham: He was a man of Truth, a prophet.
  17. Behold, he said to his father: "O my father! why worship that which heareth not and seeth not, and can profit thee nothing?
  18. "O my father! to me hath come knowledge which hath not reached thee: So follow me: I will guide thee to a Way that is even and straight.
  19. "O my father! serve not Satan: For Satan is a rebel against (Allah) Most Gracious.
  20. "O my father! I fear lest a Penalty afflict thee from (Allah) Most Gracious, so that thou become to Satan a friend."
  21. (The father) replied: "Dost thou hate my gods, O Abraham? If thou forbear not, I will indeed stone thee: Now get away from me for a good long while!"
  22. Abraham said: "Peace be on thee: I will pray to my Lord for thy forgiveness: For He is to me Most Gracious.
  23. "And I will turn away from you (all) and from those whom ye invoke besides Allah: I will call on my Lord: Perhaps, by my prayer to my Lord I shall be not unblest."
  24. When he had turned away from them and from those whom they worshipped besides Allah, We bestowed on him Isaac and Jacob, and each one of them We made a prophet.
  25. And We bestowed of Our Mercy on them, and We granted them lofty honor on the tongue of truth.
